Psalm 43 'Iudica me, Deus'

First line:

Give sentence with me, O God, and defend my cause against the ungodly people

'Will surely remain unique for many decades' (Gramophone)'All Old Testament life is here … how useful to be able to hold such a big chunk of English culture in a box five inches square' (The Times)» More

Give sentence with me, O God, and defend my cause against the ungodly people: O deliver me from the deceitful and wicked man. For thou art the God of my strength, why hast thou put me from thee; and why go I so heavily while the enemy oppresseth me? O send out thy light and thy truth that they may lead me, and bring me unto thy holy hill and to thy dwelling. And that I may go unto the altar of God, even unto the God of my joy and gladness, and upon the harp will I give thanks unto thee, O God my God.

Why art thou so heavy, O my soul, and why art thou so disquieted within me? O put thy trust in God, for I will yet give him thanks which is the help of my countenance and my God.

Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Ghost. As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be: world without end. Amen.
